“Georgia and Nevada both look like they are going to swing. There’s no way to know right now.”
Ella McDonough, Class of 2022
“It’s so bad, I didn’t think it was going to take this long and I never thought it was going to be this close. I thought Biden was for sure gonna have an easy win.”
Ben Cohen, Class of 2021
This election is crazy, it’s definitely more interesting and controversial than usual.
Kelsey Yelle, Class of 2021
Overall this has been the most stressful election ever. It’s stressful because it’s taking a long time to count the votes. I also feel that whoever wins, there will be an argument because if Trump losses he will make everyone recount haha. He is known to be a sore loser. If Biden loses, many people will honestly leave the country because Trump has divided us so badly.
Loretta White, Class of 2022
“I just want to hear Nevada’s results, they’re taking forever.”
Cam Tower, Class of 2022
“I’m disappointed regardless of the results. I think everyone’s miseducated.”
Ben Turner, Class of 2021
“I think it is interesting to experience an election that lasts this long. It’s overall a very interesting election to be apart of now that we’re mature enough to understand/care about the results.”
Hayden Tahavori, Class of 2021
I’m worried but trying to be positive. I’m glad Georgia turned blue leaning and I am just holding out all hope on the absentee ballots.
Wes Tower, Class of 2022
“I’m super stoked right now. I think Biden’s for sure about to win. I’m super content with Biden for the next four years.”
Paige Gray, Class of 2023
It just seems like two morons trying to fight for control over the US.
Anna Berteletti, Class of 2021
“The country is high in stress right now but I think that the results are going to be worth waiting a couple of extra days.”
Carolyn Flynn, Class of 2021
“I wish the popular vote had more power than the electoral vote, it’s disappointing that the leaders or our country have caused more division than unification .”
Nico Hernendez, Class of 2021
“There is a lot of sketchy stuff going on surrounding voter fraud. Everyone’s vote should be equal.”
Skyla Harlfinger, Class of 2021
We’re still waiting on Nevada. I really hope Trump doesn’t win, I’m hoping for Biden.
Mollie Crabtree, Class of 2021
This election is crazy and like I’m sure everyone else is thinking too, I’m just waiting to see what the results are. I’m hopeful but obviously still slightly concerned.
